Discovery queue based on Pc hardware

I wish there was a discovery queue in steam that instead of showing just games that would fit your style, but would also be shown to run well/not run on your setup. This could be regulated through the hardware scans valve does through steam and people who play the games could press a box for how well it ran with their specific hardware and/or if it needed extra assistance like mods or ai upscaling/frame generation to improve performance, just an idea.

Steam does not know if a game will run on your system.

yeah, that's why we use a combination of hardware scans and player feedback??

And hardware doesn't paint the entire picture. Two people with the same hardware, OS and driver versions can have wildly different results with a game in terms of stability. What is considered an acceptable level of performance varies greatly. Some might be okay with as low as 20 fps, while others would look for 60+.

Valve also could end up in negative light among publishers if their search results turn away potential customers because their assessment was wrong or potentially wrong. It also could make steam look bad for players if they blindly follow these results and they don't match reality.

Liability. To the customer:
Steam would have to offer much more loosened refund options if they overestimated the capabilities of your system setup, be it drivers, interfering software or just misjudged hardware.

Liability. To the publisher:
Steam would be liable for missed sales if they underestimated the capabilities of your system setup, be it outdated hardware lists, misjudging benchmark results or due to interfering software.

The system requirement info fields are form free text fields instead of static fields in which to add or select hardware components from.
Valve would have to have a perfectly written and ranked database in which components are compared and benchmarked, something no vendor, not even specialized sites that benchmark hardware, can provide accurately due to exotic outliers.

No, Valve wouldn't do that
